Capsazepine, an antagonist of capsaicin, is discovered by the structure and activity relationship. In previous studies it has been found that capsazepine has potency for immunomodulation and anti-inflammatory activity and emerging as a favourable target in quest for efficacious and safe anti-inflammatory drug. Thus, a 2D quantitative structural activity relationship (QSAR) model against target ...

Flavonoids are potential antibacterial agents. However, key substituents and mechanism for their antibacterial activity have not been fully investigated. The quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) and molecular docking of flavonoids relating to potent anti-Escherichia coli agents were investigated. Comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity in...

Three-dimensional quantitative structure activity relationship (3D QSAR) analysis was carried out on a et of 56 N,N'-diarylsquaramides, N,N'-diarylureas and diaminocyclobutenediones in order to understand their antagonistic activities against CXCR2. The studies included comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA). Models with good ...

A new Receptor-Dependent LQTA-QSAR approach, RD-LQTA-QSAR, is proposed as a new 4D-QSAR method. It is an evolution of receptor independent LQTA-QSAR. This approach uses the free GROMACS package to carry out molecular dynamics simulations and generates a conformational ensemble profile for each compound. Such an ensemble is used to build molecular interaction field-based QSAR models, as in CoMFA...

Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) methods and related approaches have been used to investigate the molecular features that influence the absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity (ADMET) of drugs. As the three-dimensional structures of several major ADMET proteins become available, structure-based (docking-scoring) computations can be carried out to compleme...

Tie-2, a kind of endothelial cell tyrosine kinase receptor, is required for embryonic blood vessel development and tumor angiogenesis. Several compounds that showed potent activity toward this attractive anticancer drug target in the assay have been reported. In order to investigate the structure-activity correlation of indolocarbazole series compounds and modify them to improve their selectivi...

Recently, anti-cancer targeting drugs are directed against specific molecules and signaling pathways. These agents have reasonable specificity, efficacy less side effects. Tyrosine kinases, which play an essential role in growth factor regulation, significant targets this type of therapy. Synthesized numerous tyrosine-kinase inhibitors (TKIs), such as substituted indolin-2-ones, effective anti-...

In cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, sulfur-rich isothiocyanates, most notably sulforaphane (SFN), has shown anti-cancer properties, including cell cycle regulation, inducing apoptosis, and metastasis. Sulforaphane is a natural antioxidant that regulates several signal transduction pathways controlling oxidative stress, cellular defense, cardiovascular disease. This paper attempts to elu...

HDAC8 inhibitors have become an attractive treatment for cancer. This study aimed to facilitate the identification of potential chemical scaffolds for the selective inhibition of histone deacetylase 8 (HDAC8) using in silico approaches. Non-linear QSAR classification and regression models of HDAC8 inhibitors were developed with support vector machine. Mean impact value-based sequential forward ...
